Fresh off a successful five-game road trip in the Western Conference in the past week, the Los Angeles Kings (5-3-3) get to return home to the friendly confines of Crypto.com Arena on Thursday night (Oct. 30) to face the Detroit Red Wings (7-3-0).
The Kings went 4-0-1 on their five-game road trip in the West this past week, including a 4-3 regulation win over the San Jose Sharks early this week on Tuesday night (Oct. 28). The Kings face a familiar foe tonight in net for the Red Wings, former LA goalie Cam Talbot.
LA has controlled the recent history of the series against Detroit at home. In the past seven matchups between the Kings and Red Wings in Los Angeles, the good guys are 6-0-1, including four multi-goal wins.
Tonight will be a good test for the Kings' defensive group, which has struggled early this regular season for head coach Jim Hiller on that end of the ice. The Kings rank 23rd in the NHL in allowed goals this season.
Detroit has four players with at least eight total points early this regular season. Center Dylan Larkin leads the Wings with eight goals and 16 total points.
Here's a look at the TV/streaming information, start time, and radio broadcast information for the matchup between the Kings and Red Wings as LA returns home to Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, CA, on Oct. 30.
